Crane Coloring Contest

CCCC sponsors the Crane Coloring Contest every year as a program to help raise “crane awareness” in the younger generation. Ages 3 to 18 are eligible to participate. The contest runs from March – August every year. Kids from across the world are encouraged to color, paint, and decorate the coloring page and return it to us to participate in the Crane Coloring Contest. The coloring pages are created by local Colorado artists.

The contest rules and coloring page will be available starting in March every year. Awards are given out at a special ceremony at the Bud Werner Memorial Library during the annual Yampa Valley Crane Festival in early September.

2023 Coloring Contest Results

A favorite part of our annual festival is the Crane Coloring Contest for kids. Ages 3 to 18 are eligible to participate. This year we also had entries from Horizons that made up the adult category.

Over 200 kids from across the world colored, painted, and decorated the drawing and returned it to us to participate in the Crane Coloring Contest. This year’s coloring page was created by artist Sandi Poltorak.

Awards were given out at a special ceremony at the Bud Werner Memorial Library during the 12th annual Yampa Valley Crane Festival. Lyon’s Drug has generously provided prizes for the coloring contest. All entries were displayed at the Bud Werner Library throughout the Yampa Valley Crane Festival and winners will be displayed at Lyon’s Drug in Steamboat Springs until the end of September.

Congratulations to our winners and thank you to everyone who participated in this year’s Crane Coloring Contest!
